The Ford Barn

Hi all! Sorry I have not posted anything in quite a while. I have been sick on and off for the past few months and finally got a handle on it.

I’m just curious, I was sandblasting my spindle arm today before I powder coat it and I was just wondering if the number on it was an actual part number or it had something to do with the car? I see it has the FORD script and a number which looks like A31302. Anyone that knows please help out my curiosity.
My car is a 28 Tudor if that matters.
I am a younger guy still learning everyday about these cars.

That would be a part number.

It is the part number for the right hand spindle arm 1928 to 1931 from the July 1931 parts price list booklet . A 3130 .The 2 at the end is most likely a sesquential casting number .

As per the Jan 1 1928 original parts book A-3130-B is is the right spindle arm. Could your "2" actually be a "B"? When you clean the left arm the number should be A-3131 with possibly a "B" at the end. If so, I suggest your # "2" is probably a "B".
